Yep great meet.
Usual scenario of the group getting split up along the route but at least we managed to meet up again at the pub :roll: :D

Dave,Dartmoor meet again would be good,maybe next month sometime??

Roley,my ears are still runging from your car :mad:
Good to meet you though :D

Thanks to all those that turned up,see you at the next one!

Hey guys good to meet you all and catch up with some friendly faces.

Althought the convoy got split up, I think everyone made it to the pub ok in the end. If people printed off copies of the route and bring maps things could stay together better. After all every other car normally has a navigator :D

Tony, on this page is where you'll find the front brake upgrade info we discussed earlier.

Monkey, here's the lpg forum I mentioned

http://www.my90.co.uk/lpg/

And the overall best place to get lpg stuff from
